an equation is shown below:

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step. (5 points)

Your answer is x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First start by distributing 5 to everything in the parenthesis.

5 * 2x = 10x

5 * -8 = -40

What you're left with is 10x - 40 + 15 = -15

Next subtract 15 from both sides.

10x - 40 + 15 - 15

The 15's will cancel each other out on the left side.

-15 - 15 = -30

What you're left with is 10x - 40 = -30

Next add 40 to both sides.

10x - 40 + 40

The 40's will cancel each other out on the left side

-30 + 40 = 10

What you're left with is 10x = 10

Divide both sides by 10 to get x by itself.

10x / 10 = x

10 / 10 = 1

What you're left with is x = 1

x = 25

step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+24^2=c^2

49+576=625

sqrt625=25

x=25

answer rather than having to add and subtract the measurements of the semi-circle, notice that the semicircle to the left of ad is actually identical in area to the blank semicircle-shaped space to the left of bc. so if we transferred the red semicircle into the blank space, we would end up with a square of side length 24 cm. the area of a square is s^2 = 24^2 = 676 cm^2.

u also answered this so i think u would know but i am here to

put in or use mine
